he league’s defensive player of the year award feels like it could go to one or both of them every year.This year PFT’s selection is Donald Los Angeles Rams T-Shirt , who led the NFL in sacks from the defensive tackle position and was a disruptive force for the Rams as they earned a first-round bye in the NFC playoffs. The Rams’ defense as a whole struggled at times, particularly against the run, but Donald absolutely dominates the man in front of him — and often dominates two men in front of him when he’s double-teamed.Watt returned from missing most of the last two seasons and picked up right where he left off, finishing second only to Donald in sacks this season and playing very well against the run. Watt has already won the defensive player of the year award three times, and he easily could have won it a fourth time this year. He’s that good.But we’re choosing Donald, last year’s winner Los Angeles Rams Hats , to repeat. The Rams gave Donald an enormous contract this year, but he showed no signs that the money is going to make him satisfied. He wants to be the very best defensive player in football, and for the second consecutive year, he is. The Los Angeles Rams will travel to Washington to face the Seattle Seahawks in week 5. While it’s still early in the season, this game provides an opportunity for the Rams to not only bury a division foe, but to also put a stranglehold on the division.Here’s who I will be looking to make a big impact in what is sure to be a great game.Mark BarronBarron’s official injury designator is questionable with an ankle injury heading into the weekend Los Angeles Rams Hoodie , but he has battled a multitude of issues as he fights to get back onto the field. It looks like Barron could make his debut against the Seahawks, but how much he’s on the field and how effective he will be remains to be seen.Todd GurleyFor all the hubbub surrounding the collapse of the Seahawks defense and the “Legion of Boom”, they are still pretty damn good defending the pass. They have the 6th best pass defense in the NFL, but the run defense is another story.The Seahawks are allowing 122.5 yards per game on the ground. Look for Rams head coach Sean McVay to exploit that and use Gurley as a focal point on offense.Cairo SantosIt was no surprise when the Rams moved on from K Sam Ficken after lackluster performances. Personally I thought thought the Rams would sign a veteran kicker, but special teams coordinator John Fassel had other (better) ideas. Santos has a career 84% completion percentage and I’m sure coach Bones can work some magic with him.If Santos can consistently convert field goals, it’s a win-win for both sides. Santos gets to re-establish himself as a legit NFL kicker and the Rams aren’t forced to rush All-Pro kicker Greg Zuerlein back from his groin injury. If Santos isn’t consistent Customized Los Angeles Rams Jerseys , we’re back to this conversation next week.....Sam ShieldsShields is a feel good story. He overcame his concussion problems and returned to the NFL as a depth signing for the Rams this offseason. Everyone loves a feel good story, but it was clear that Minnesota Vikings QB Kirk Cousins was picking on Shields in week 4.The Seahawks WR group isn’t as talented as the Vikings, but Doug Baldwin, Tyler Lockett, and Brandon Marshall aren’t scrubs by any stretch of the imagination either. It will be interesting to see how Shields responds against the Seahawks.Ndamukong SuhSeahawks QB Russell Wilson better keep his head on a swivel.....
